This pattern is also available for $1.99 from Knit Picks as part of their Independent Designer Program.

Appropriate for an adventurous beginner, this pattern also offers an innovative modification of tubular double knitting that will bring something new to even the most experienced knitters.

Pockets are knit into the design. That means no stitches to pick up, and no seams to sew. In fact, these pockets are so secure, you’ll never worry about losing anything! The clever construction is so quick & easy, you’ll want to add pockets to all your scarves!

Links to video tutorials created specifically for use with this pattern are included for those who prefer to see new methods demonstrated before trying them on their own. Whether you study the videos or just follow along with the written instructions, you’ll be thrilled by the magic the first time you open the pockets!

The pattern comes with 2 different striping options. If you love stripes but aren’t so keen on weaving in ends, select a self-striping yarn! Love the idea of pockets but aren’t so thrilled with stripes? This scarf would look great in a solid color, too!
